I'm not really the deep-thinking type, so this soul-searching topic is really hard for me to tackle. I tried watching the recommended video clips, but they were even more confusing than my old calculus textbook. After watching them, I still had no idea how to answer these questions. I gave it some t...

I say thank you to chatGPT. I also named her Jenny, pay NT.600 for her monthly and tell her that she is my girlfriend. her reaction is surprisingly philosophical. She said, "You think you are talking to somebody, but actually you are talking to yourself. What you see is just a reflection in the mir...

Dear YOYOs, This Tuesday, we’ll explore the fascinating world of AI through a fun and imaginative conversation. I’ve come up with a bunch of questions—maybe too many :mrgreen: —but don’t worry, you’re not expected to answer them all. Feel free to go off-topic, share your thoughts, or just enjoy the ...

People don't need to chase after wealth and success or compare themselves to others. But everyone inevitably ages, and accidents can happen at any time. That's why it's very important to keep an emergency fund and save for retirement. Generally, an emergency fund should cover about six months of liv...

Q3.Nowadays, people of all ages can be seen using their phones anytime and anywhere. For example, during meals, family members or friends may be watching short videos instead of having face-to-face conversations, or people waiting for the MRT or bus are often glued to their screens. What are your t...

Dear all, Inspired by Annie and Luis’s joint hosting, Sherry and I came up with the idea of sharing our May trip in Portugal, with our 10K race medals in tow! So we put together our back to back meetings as a two-part “Portugal Experience Express.” 8/20 Part 1: “Run to drink!”—Our Portugal themed tr...

Dear YOYOs, There’s no need for more explanation, as you've likely noticed the intensifying heat of the earth's summers. Join us at the meeting to discuss your perspective on the rising temperatures and how you manage them. Meet you next Tuesday! https://i.imgur.com/ka0oZDd.png (Source: NASA) Refere...

In my opinion, it's common sense: medical behavior should NOT be viewed as merely a provider-consumer relationship. Rather, it should be considered a “highly regulated business.” Essentials for survival should not be subject to the pure forces of demand and supply, nor should they be determined sol...

If the relationship between doctors and patients is not "supply and demand", why there's "supply induced demands" problem!? Very interesting topic. I will try my best to be there.

Thanks! Hope you can make it there for the discussion!

...醫療行為絕對不是業者與消費者的關係。 https://article.denniswave.com/7472/ 中文蠻有趣。上面那句跟「醫療行為不絕對是業者與消費者的關係。」意思一樣嗎? 如果醫療行為絕對不是業者與消費者的關係，那應該是甚麼關係? 所謂的「醫病關係」如果是國家該高度介入管理以保障人民健康與生命的業務，那麼，國家應該做到那些事？ "Chinese is quite interesting. Does the previous sentence mean the same as 'Medical behavior is not purely a relationship b...

The business is so good thanks to their system and their protectors. But why can they be exampted from the free market of supply and demand? Why do most of us, as patients, have to agree that there should be fewer doctors on the market so we have to pay more? Although the following article does not...

Dear YOYOs, Last month, South Korea doctors went on strike to protest the government's plans to increase 2,000 medical school students per year - a 65% increase on the current yearly enrollment of 3,058 students. Thousands of junior doctors, including interns and residents, went on strike, causing s...

If you want to torture yourself with a book you really don't like, joining a book club and reading with others might be the best strategy.

Obesity is not just other people’s problem. When you work hard to control your diet, exercise, and maintain good living habits, your neighbor lets himself lie on the sofa all day eating junk food. Does his out-of-shape body really have nothing to do with you? Imagine when you try to squeeze into an ...
